8. I hate that elections are so dollar driven. But in this case WE'VE voted with our dollars.
I admit, I have ambivalent feelings about it. The BEST candidate shouldn't have to be the richest candidate. If elections were fair, access to the airwaves would be equal and cheap or free.

15. I totally agree with you and so does my husband.
However, at this time and with he rules we have, this is the only and best way we could've done it. Fortunately, an inspiring enough leader has stepped up to the plate for us and helped move us forward with our grievances. There was no other way. I'm glad the majority of the money wasn't from PACs and things like that. His success has actually been our success, we have had a stake in it by our money.

7. This election is no longer about Larry King - he is irrelevant.
Forget the pundits, polls, and propaganda - this campaign is in our hands now. We are the ground game Barack is counting on. Its time to work like the devil and get out our vote.

Its now or never gang - what will you do to elect Barack Obama today - and tomorrow - and the next day.

Its up to us now.

Yes We Can!

10. Larry King = Edward R. Murrow
of our day.

Except for the hard hitting reporting, standing up to power and frauds, and passion for the truth.

12. You know, with all the "socialist" talk, you'd think Capitalism is the pinnacle of GOP virtue.

13. What the HELL is wrong with the media?
You know when it's a delusional-coming-from-right-field-ridiculous-phony-talking-point issue, that they got that from the GOP. Do they really need to be that transparent? Do you mean to tell me a large group of "citizenry" expressed immediate outrage that Obama had a commercial on TV? What the fuck ever -- this is McPalin psychosis, straight from the diapers of the wannabe Roves over at Camp Desperate. I knew this would be their talking point -- you can see them in a brainstorming session with this point circled and underlined at the top of the "Holy shit, how do we respond" list.

The only people who buy this shit have about one half of one brain cell.

14. Unlike Larry, who's been buying an erection for a decade
Campaign money was never an issue until Obama brought millions of average people into the process.
